Welcome to the World Precious Granddaughter
I have seen a lot of these darling onesie cards. I just had to make one for my little granddaughter that is to be born any day now.
If you want to make one, too, Kay Kalthoff (Speedystamper) has a wonderful tutorial on her blog “Stamping to Share”. Thank you, Kay!!
This will most likely be my last post for awhile. I am jumping on a plane Wednesday morning and heading to my son’s home to help them move into their new home. DH and teenage son will have to hold down the home front here and “bach’” it for awhile”. *chuckle*
My DDIL is on bed rest and really must NOT help with any of the move. So hopefully I can fill in there. And who knows.. while I am there maybe little Kaitlyn Abigail will decide it is time to make her appearance into this world! She will be my third granddaughter. With four sons it just shows there can be justice in this world! lol With so much to do before I go and company coming the day after I get back, I simply will not have time to play and blog. I will still choose a winner of my blog candy on Friday, but will not get it mailed out until after I am back home. (If you haven’t checked out yesterday’s post, you might want to take a look. I have a challenge and some blog candy!!)
Oh and don’t forget about Sharon’s blog celebration which continues through Friday of this week!!
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!

I just love these onesie cards! So cute!!! Have a great trip hopefully you’ll get to see that new baby!!!
What a great idea to use non traditional paper for a baby card. I love it. The sentiment is super cute too. It is a stamp or did you Alphabet stamps?
Susan how wonderful for you… This is such a sweet card!!
Have fun when the little one arrives.
this is this most adorable onsie i’ve seen!! i love the dp and the flower and ribbon are perfect. congrats on the (soon to be) newest addition!!
Susan this is darling! Oh you are such a good MIL to go and help out. I hope she is resting like doctor said and that little one continues to grow. Hugs and congrats!
Enjoy your time with your son!
Love the onesie card, its just adorable.
Safe travels

We haven’t decided for sure that her name is going to be kaitlyn. We also haven’t decided how we want to spell it. There are so many options. Katelyn, katelynn, kaitlyn and kaitlynn. I personally like the first the best.
This post has been edited: Jeff!! You weren’t suppposed to see this post!! I thought you would be too busy studying for your finals this week to be bothered with reading your mom’s blog! lol I know you haven’t decided on a name for sure yet but Kaitlyn Abigail or Katelyn Abigail was the last one you gave me, and I LOVE IT! See you soon!
OMG - Susan - how super exciting!!! Have a safe trip and I can’t wait till you show off the new baby!!! The card is super precious!!! Your son and DDIL are gonna love it!!!
Take care and happy holidays!!! Hugs~S~
Awwww, Susan…this is just too, too cute!!! Congrats on your new DGD….a little early but she may be here by the time you read this!!! Have a wonderful trip and enjoy your time with your family!!!!
Susan, this is adorable and congrats on your new GD’s arrival. I have 2 DGD and they are so much fun. I have one GS who is wonderful as well. I love this card and I know they will also!

Congratulations on becoming a grandma to another precious little girl! I love the name they’ve chosen, and the card you made to celebrate the occasion! I’ve always made my onsie cards in pastel colors, but I love the rich, vintage look of this one done in darker cardstock! That tiny flower and bow just sets it off perfectly! You’re such a thoughtful Mom to fly off and help your son move during his time of need! I hope you have a safe trip, and feel well enough to entertain when you arrive back home! Whew, I wish I could tap into your energy source:) I’m already tired just thinking about the work that lies ahead of you!
Have fun! I’ll miss you while you’re gone
This is totally precious! Terrific card! Have a safe trip and post lots of pictures of the new baby when she comes. Glad she has been holding on!
Adorable card and soon you’ll see that new and wonderful little grand daughter. How sweet is that! Don’t overdo with the move but your son is blessed to have you coming to help. Take care and love to all at this terrific time. Pat
